This is also a QoL issue
theres people who think the whole lobby will sit outside 75m of bounty just staring at it
i always prio killing bounty/bounty team
i think it might force people to actually play the game
i will drop a winning fight to go for the objective
im just gonna be optimistic and see what happens when it launches
if it takes too long
It means if you have extract early for any reason, like teammate disconnects or loadout mishaps, you're better off just quitting the match
or going to few towers to find the map
While people are waiting because their game crashed? People are just gonna quit out like they used to with rain
minority will
You could roam the border and find teams of dead sniper trios all the time when rain came out
I think majority will
Hate ppl who js run with bounty
we will see i guess
if my friend DC's and can't reconnect, I'm just gonna poof out myself.
but i agree they could rework some of the bounty stuff to make more appealing to all players
like adding bloodbonds chance to extracting with it or giving it chance to award skins etc.
small chance but still a chance
We lost BB's in match rewards years ago and I don't see it coming back
Especially knowing this is Crytek's only real game they have to monetize
obv
but if one out of 15 bounties rewards like 25 or 50 bbs they wouldnt be loosing revenue at any sizefull portion
but it would make players prio it more
I think they're gonna penny pinch like Scrooge himself
That's the track record they've had with monetization as of late
Gold registers are so rare they might as well not count
I've seen less than 10 in 6 years of playing
aye but still
The weekly BB's sound nice until you see the price of most skins and realize just how long it would take to get them without just buying BB's
Some hunter skins alone are 1500
i mean tbf skins in hunt are on the cheaper end when it comes to overall skin prices ive seen games do
and they tend to sale them aswell
but yeah... side tracked, bb's was just an idea that would affect everyone in way that they would prolly prioritize bounty over random spawn fights.
Dang
thats like.... 15 mins of work for me.
yeah it is incredibly cheap. it wouldve been an hour for me 5 years ago as well. still on the cheaper side.
meanwhile in Arc Raiders skins are 20 dollars. LUL
damn xd
this is why i bought like 5 DLCs when I barely have 5 hours in the game 🤣
Like we pay taxes on our payday, we pay taxes once every year with annual bills and we getting taxed 15% on everything we buy
hey i got a buddy to try hunt but whenever we load into a game, his mic in discord and in game get all staticy and i cant hear him. Any suggestions?
DLCs were 3 dollars last sale hahahahahah
indeed
IIRC cry of the caged bird was 4
9,80 + 15% taxes for me xd
dang. whats the min wage? where i live there's a tax floor. so lots of low income actually dont pay taxes outside VAT
That's a beeg ooof
also the terminus feels so absolutely garbage without levering
thats because it is
the other shotguns are just better
then why do they keep putting it in quests
levering is what makes the terminus notable
ohmmm
ohmm
they want you to suffer
also my trio has each gotten it on a different week so its the third time in 5 weeks
😭
and also im out of money cause last week was mosin
and the samll doesnt count anymore
terminus has a soft place in my heart after i levered a guy from 150 to burnt out with dragons breath
evil
I dont hate it with levering it just desperately needs to cycle faster or somthing without it, it is so horrendously awful on its own
cause it doesnt kill things and is slow as balls
Levering is so terrible and I hate this game and my stupid chud teammates that I get
Wait. Horses can actually kick? I thought that was a joke
We hate it bro
You mean in the game right? /Jk
They do in the game
There's even like
27 death that happens by horse
How much damage is it?
whats the point of harpoon ammo for the bomb launcher, when the crossbow exists?
So that you have ranged projectile to shoot
Normal ammo bomblance isn't exactly the most accurate to shoot
Just watched a guy clear the lobby but fail to extract because they didn't understand how locked extraction points works and the timer ran out...
Oof
I got a from the grave kill almost 43 minutes into the match...
Advanced levels of hating LOL
In my defence I trapped a caravan like 10 minutes in and died like 20 minutes in then decided to go afk while spectating because I had to go afk anyways
LOL
man I'm lowkey angry
I hit multiple headshots last match with my officer carbine deadeye
only for it to not count towards the rifle headshot quest
😾
I lobotomized 3 guys last match
remember when carbines counted as pistols
it still does
otherwise it would have counted towards my ironshod bandit questline
they should award from the grave kills even if u leave the match alrdy and some1 dies to your traps bth
I know for a fact they removed it at least some point in time
if they added it back that's epic
like lil ping that u got a kill
they did
sadly I found out the hard way
I was cranking 90s on the roof of ironworks
lobotomized an incend avto user who was trying to knock me off the roof annnd I got nothing
😾
It's a medium slot with other choices. No It's not as meta adherent but it's viable, and fun mo
do you think if I go up to bounty and say they have to give me bounty because it's my birthday they'd do it
maybe
I remember playing chess online at chess . com during the 4th of july and some guy asked me for a draw since he had to go out and set fireworks for his kids
I of course agreed
Is it actually your birthday?
unc
So your birthday is March 10th?
Yes
Same lol
1966
Congurtz on the big 60
Man I need 15 players to come back
So much action
This slow paced shit is annoying
Solo trios was so much more fun when It was around
zero skill sniper half a compound away
“I bought the game, I’ll play how I want” —ahh tactic
Cringe be cringe ass shit
I’ll never understand that lame ass mindset
Hey can you track how many kills you need to raise mmr? Like X kills until 3 star?
“Pick up bounty and extract right away” ahh tactic
Not sure, just get more kills than deaths and you’ll get there
It’s not hard to become 6* in this game anymore
Someone in my trio talking about it like he knows
i dont think you can track it but its pretty easy to just guess when youre about to drop or go up
Yea pretty much ^^
youll get much more if youre killing people higher than you aswell
Vice versa too
so if you have like 3 good matches against higher players you just go up lmao
If you kill a higher mmr, your mmr will Incrase a lot more, but if you die by a lower mmr your mmr will also drop to that *
A 6* dying to a 3* will drop you so much
It’s crazy but it’s the penalty to dying I suppose
But it’s not like it’s impossible to get back up to 6* lmao
The real skill is the high 6* lobbies
Practically 7* tbh
usually idc about things like kd or mmr but it's a little annoying when you gotta fight 2 6 stars and their 3 star friend and you spend all your resources battling out with the 6 stars and then the 3 star gets one shot on you afterwards that finally gets you anbd the game only knows you lost to a 3 star
but at least there you got the 2 6 star kills that probably saved your drop
Yup exactly, couldn’t have said it any better unfortunately lmao
Just how the game goes I guess
yo
just got back to the game
wanted to see whats new
first game on i get 3 kills and my team gets rolled. I revive them and when we try to extract i get killed by one of em
since when is friendly fire on
Freedom of play style, freedom to criticize play style
is lemat still good
its a pretty solid backup
im glad it hasnt fallen off then
idk whats changed since last time you played since i only started in december but slugs fucking suck rn
just use buckshot
slugs barely give you any extra one tap range
brooo i noticed that, point blank slug and not a one shot
better off having buck and jump peeking
shot
yeah if you dont hit upper chest/head with slugs you wont get a one tap
youll never believe this but meta is still mosin
it was a shoulder tapo
shocker
Goated asf, buckshot got buffed so it reliably 1 taps 8-10m now
unfortunately i dont have a skin for the lemat so its bad
just the way it is really
Imagine not owning all the skins in the game smh...
sorry you're not my wife, no can do
i could be
what was a pain about it
with dumdum ammo i remember it was a pain
that still exists and works well but you dont run into it too much so
shouldnt be much of a problem
i think last time i played was like october 2024 or close to beginning of 2025
i loved this game so much i hit prestige 1 in like 2 days
april of 2025, last time i played
i used to be a bomb launcher enjoyer
us pistol mains need more representation in the media
And 70m bullet drop amazing
doesn't uppercut do more than 99 dmg or am i forgetting something
yeah it does like 123 damage but spitzer has less damage than base
spitzers whole downside is you stop doing big damage
oh right i didn't read the spitzer part
fair
even so Spitzer until a certain point is basically a two hit
honestly Hunt's damage system is really funny
That would be as bad as when they added fmj to dolch
nuh uh
Hmmm
Why
i mean thats not the point of it having reduced damage
if it didnt 2 tap it would be like
ass
it's like "oh no this two hit kill bullet loses damage... Staying a 2 hit kill"
it's literally only the Bornheim that gets really affected by the damage loss
...goes from 2 hit to a 3 hit
bornheim match
true
normal bornheim is already a 3 hit
anyway the issue is more that with long ammo when youre dealing like 130 damage going down is pretty big
That's a wild misunderstanding
Due to range drop and limb damage
when someone gets downed it and they get revived its not as bad if you have long ammo cause youll just 1 tap them
you dont get this with spitzer
And then add things like pen in with that
and if you somehow tag someone for like 20 damage with a consumable the mosin would just obliterate them
cant do that with spitzer
Without that one trait or solo necro you revive with like no health, so..?
You'd be surprised how many free one taps you'll get with it
i mean yeah you will get alot of 1 taps with spitzer
just not as much as you could with normal
i mean thats why most people run resil
because it prevents you from getting 1 tapped off revive
most the people who dont use resil arent using it because they have a big bar front so it wouldnt really matter
I don't think I see it
do you normally run 125 or more damage
solo revives on the other hand
Well, yea, but I like using the Cyclone and the various 73s too
I value necro more
thats fair
i mean i just take necro and resil into every match
theyre both great to have
I think Cyclone only does 101 damage or something
yeah cyclone does less
but it's semi auto so
but if you have 125 or more damage you cant really say for sure if someone has resil because youd one tap them anyway unless they have relentless
The use case where resilience is make or break is slim
Resil is good for me at least at ranged combat
idk resil helps me alot
tbf the more i run into long ammo the less useful it is
which is happening more and more
but if they're right next to you it won't help
Ya even with resil, if someone is watching for the necro you're dead anyway
tbf necro is the same unless you get lucky tho
if you dont go for a bad necro its not the same
you can usually tell if your teammate will get farmed off the necro
Na, so many disrespect the necro these days it's wild
solo necro
almost got 4th partied after holding 4 bounties 
not team revive necro
I'm talking team, ya solo necro is typically bust
if you have like
insane levels of patience
solo necro is something
i mean if you get cooked close range
they will just burn you
and you will just die
but it works most the time if you keep your distance with it
I never used it personally but I body camp loners to make sure they burn lol
If you're sniping, or if things are chaotic enough they don't realize you're solo
if they get back up I kill them again
theres a few situations where ive just gotten up cause they get third partied
yeah
and whenever i die from doing that its not because necro failed its because i failed
so like when are we getting trueshot carbine
time to play pve in the edge of the map i guess 
trapping the solo also works ig
istg everyone i fight when im solo runs poacher
ill sit there fucking listening and they do nothing
get up
die
lol

there have been two solo necros that did try to snipe me buuuut
This was MS PowerToys for me.
in middle of a fight
I've said it multiple times already lol the further away I am the more likely I win
the second time I was also solo but he never killed me even though we had four different engagements across the whole map area
llike
he kept shooting me in the back out of nowhere
I would hide and heal
they would just be gone
the second half they had bounty so I was just intercepting them
blocked their exfil before they reached it which is where I finally killed them twice
twice in a row!!!?
Turn firewall off and forcechoose a dns server
And, of course, restart the pc
Reptilian running maynard silenced. Absolute cringe.
There is a software in your PC that is causing it. This is an EAC kick.
AutoHotkey, Cheat Engine, MS PowerToys, whatever that is causing a false positive
EAC sucks balls and it shows
Could it be my elden ring cheat engine?
also #troubleshooting
could be anything my L lettered amigo
that's why you have no choice but to test
i would load in with a free hunter and check if it still happens
list of cheat programs
"could it be my (game) cheat engine?"
it's in the same computer...

if I remember how EAC works correctly it just matters that it reads a program on your computer
Thanks yall
tbf MS PowerToys isnt a cheat program. It just adds extra poweruser features on your pc.
i had the same problem and it was that software
microsoft trolling you
those features are probably things you wish you had on windows
also elden ring cheat engine... the game has the most accessible soulslikes features in the world 
dont need cheat engine for that
I ain't gonna kill 1 golum guy for 30 minutes just for his hat
those big statue things? oh yeah i hate those
gargoyles i think they're called
i hate those. i never had fun fighting those!
Use Wand instead of Cheat Engine. Everybody and everything hates Cheat Engine. 
Wand (formerly WeMod)
But i don't want to spend 30 minutes for the head piece
Is there like no one playing in OCE ?
man I just wanted to extract from clash but there was a prestige 100 guy with maynard silenced camping it
he didn't even extract, he waited til timeout

oh cool six star as well
must have been mind numbing. 45 minutes of camping. bro probably scrolling tiktok, consuming electricity with the game on idle
oce servers
play NA west or asia
ping is bearable and theres actually people on those servers
I run into the same 20 people constantly, to the point I know most of the regular 6 star OCE players by the hunter they choose to play
this happened yesterday. it was amazing
I swear you have a +20% chance to blow yourself up in Clash
dont play clash 
Hey yall quick question I'm coming into this game from Arc Raiders, what are the major differences I need to be aware of?
is the more players in the lobby off now?
There's no micromanage inventory looting system. The main objective in Hunt Showdown is PvP, where you fight over a monster boss, which drops a bounty token and try to extract with it.
how does losing gear on death work then?
all
Also its kill on site not make friends
same as most extraction shooters. If you die, you lose your gear and hunter and have to rehire a new one
W loadout
glad to hear that I like arc but sometimes the games get boring when nobody wants to fight and I feel bad shooting a friendly player
alright
thanks
Yeahh even if ppl act freindly in this game they'll usually shoot you in the back anyway
I am one of those ppl :3
Wow, toxic!
Hunt players cant be trusted on EU - A solo convinced me he was friendly and we both picked up a bounty. He put two auto4 rounds in my back near extract.
That’s why you gotta scream I’m not friendly and feel no remorse
It was rlly funny a Romero right in the back and then they solo revived and I shot em again
Are you not supposed to play solo?
You can play solo, no probs
But since they are alone, solos typically have to play a little more careful and is then considered rats since they have multiple teams to worry about
Most people will go out of their way to get rid of a solo asap if they know there is one there since one getting up at an inopportune time can wreck your chances at winning
makes sense
Pro tip: If you play as a solo, wait for two teams to start fighting before interfering. Also, get Necro since you can get up one time after getting downed
Got it, thanks. Necro is a perk?
Yep, you can also randomly find them in a match. If you do, make a mental note of where it is so if you get killed, you can get back up and pick it up again for another chance
Playing on EU with higher ping is being pretty rough atm
Ping abooser smh...
Gachamongus forgot to mention use bow and saber as a loadout
.
The ping is abusing me
I run behind a tree for cover and fall over dead
Bow and saber?
If you wanna rat it's bow + maynard silenced m8
Kill view is him looking right at me through the tree but I know it was the ping difference
I thought this game was bolt actions and revolvers
I prefer the term stealth archer instead of rat.
You say potato i say potato
Only weirdos use gun powder.
This game has a lot of weird things in it. Bows, crossbows, throwing knives/axes/spears, a bomb launcher
I want you to know that I know what you mean.
Bomb lance which is a big melee weapon + a bomb launcher in one weapon
that sounds hilarious
Btw who tf uses sabers... It's bow + katana if you go that route
With the addition of the new saber skin I do before that I used blood orchid never liked the katana.
Bro's going form over function! You are not sweatmaxxing!
I'm lookmaxxing.

If you wanna know the two dominant meta loadouts it is the Mosin rifle + Dolch pistol (sometimes the uppercut), or the Auto-5 + obrez rifle
Gacha if you choose functionality of looks your playing hunt wrong.
is meta important in this game? I tend to prefer weapons in games that look cool or that I vibe with unless playing something meta is essential
U gacha be kidding me... I don't even know who this gacha is
You before you changed your name.
It's only "important" in the higher brackets in the game
Don't worry about it
alr
Just run the true gigachad loadout 2 bomblances.
There's no gunrunner anymore!
In my heart there is.
And you can't take that away from me.
Martialist for bomb lance: You can carry two
Hunt finally finished downloading can't wait to try it out
Just know, the first 10 ranks you fight against bots in bounty hunt (unless you team up with someone who's rank 11 or higher)
So kill everything
honestly you can still run other shit in high mmr lobbies and be fine it just gets rough if you try to use a meme kit which is expected
i was high 6 for a time and just ran like berthier lebel
granted theyre great weapons
but everyone else just uses mosin so
mosin dolch mosin dolch
lebel new army
💝
I mean, if you hit your shots there's no big difference between lebel or mosin
Bow saber knuckle spear flare and chokes. 2 stamina shot 1 restore and 1 Regen.
i just mean to say you dont have to use the one loadout everyone considers meta
i’ll continue yapping once i get to a charger my phone is on 1%
Hey guys, I'd like to ask (especially the European region), are you ok with the 10-meter one-shot range for shotguns?
Since update 1896, imho, shotguns have become an extremely toxic weapon, particularly because of their long one-shot range, making indoor firefights a bit of a hassle.
But I know a lot of people who likes shotguns 10m one-shots, and I'm really interested to hear your opinions.
Do you really enjoy this kind of gameplay?
Ofc, but it's good to be aware that there is a meta and you might be facing them
You mean 2-slots? Cuz some shotguns can kill at 13 easily. It's certainly become toxic and difficult to push lairs since everyone and their mother runs shotguns now
Honestly, if quartermaster was put to like... 10-12 points or something I wouldn't mind it that much, since you'd have to start prioritizing trait points
i would like to mention that when you need to reload on mosin you just reload or you have a clip meanwhile when you need to reload on lebel you actually go MIA for half the match before peeking again
Well, in 1896 it was actually 15 meters, but now im not sure about it. But it annoys me so much that I stopped playing.
Quartermaster should go up with the 2 slot shotgun. Very good point grugamongus.
Like cmon there are 100000 ways to deal damage and players just take free one-shot gun becouse it just works
there's clearly something wrong here
Ever slowly loading the breach
I mean with 2 slots in general it's super strong now. DolchP, Obrez drum, auto-4 + shotguns
Sparks + shotgun is a scary combo
some player are such mf - when you do the heavy lifting , kill the entire enemy team revive both your teammates and these ungrateful f extract without you despite tell them to wait for 10 sec
That sucks pretty bad
Romero alamo and sparks pistol go brrr
Dam that sucks
Throw a missile at their house
That's why I no longer play with randoms.
Lfg and try to find a perm team is your best chance.
i mean come on man i never said a word nor any text just said wait for me repeatedly in last min what the hurry to wait 10 more sec
It would be fine if shotguns could deal like 140 damage, but fkn 10+ metrs one-shots shooting at a silhouette...
I just don't understand why everyone thinks this is ok, why devs dont fix it for 1.5 years.
They be scared bro that sucks fr
Crytek has always had some issues with balancing stuff.
Penny shot is fine as is.
No it’s not one shot full health is trash
I mean pre-2.0 most 3-slot shotguns also 1-tapped at 10+ meters.
All games have a problem with balance tbh
Just use the Penny shot rival at that point.
if any one of you saw mf named @deo and @NUMB be careful these A-holes will leave you better to extract early game
What? Pennyshot does one-shot from full health, you just have less range compared to buckshot
Never will put pennys on a shot gun lol it’s trash
I would take that down before you get a warning.
The cook goes hard asf
Lol, I put penny on most shotties nowadays, they are basically an upgrade due to spread and damage
Penny shot derringer will full health
Pennyshot derringer one-shots at 4 meters
why
It's basically a melee gun
5 on a good day
Against discord rules.
Need to take it out the game
Naming and shaming, it's against discord rules
hey you realise you are comparing a tool to a weapon right
then what f should i do, no way to report these player
Dang bro can’t give anyone a heads up lol
and a tool has no fucking business being on a similar level to a weapon
!report
If you would like to report a player, you can do so on the Team Details tab in your Last Mission section on the home page. Select the player -> Open Profile -> Report. It is also accessible in the Last Match tab at any time.
If you have additional proof you would like to provide, you can find out how to reach out to official support here: #customer-support
**Please note that you can still report people even if you don't have their SteamID or cannot open their profile by providing your own SteamID, time of the incident with a time zone and region on the Hunt Showdown website (link is in the in the Customer Support channel). **
**Hiding statistics/profiles does not prevent reporting. **
Reporting a player does not work they don’t do nothing we all know that tbh
They abandoned him in a match, don't know if that's reportable
I understand that but he also wanted more range on the Penny Der.
Oh yeah, totally not lol
Until 1896 it was balanced well.
The reason people took shotguns was because they didn't require aiming.
They one-shot at close range (3-5 meters), and still double-shot at longer ranges, like most other weapons in the game.
what new about that every time this happens thats why i posted here
Technically they didn't do anything wrong to be reported for they did something scummy yup but besides that nothing else
- Balanced, okay buddy hunter
yeah and player like me should suffer that what ur saying
Never wanted more range just said it need to be tuned down
im tired as fuck and thought you wanted longer range not him thats mb
Same here misunderstanding on both parties 😂
Thought you wanted more range sorry😂
That's the chance you take with randoms sadly.
okay so were all on the same page then lmfao
I don't know how to show people and developers that shotguns are killing the game's momentum, because everyone's afraid of getting one-shot by a free boom-tube.
Maybe we could create some kind of petition?
Nah never bro
Yeah we are
i mean
just have better positioning
and use consumables
There is plenty of feedback about people wants shotgun nerfed, mostly 2-slots. But at this point it ain't gonna happen.
No Malay weapons are killing hunt tbh
malay </3
great , so customer support is a scam and such thing should go unpunished , i wish match with those mf in future,
Remove everything that kills me
this guy gets it
Dude there's nothing to punish you played with randoms and got bad ones. I'm not trying to mean but use lfg bro.
its not that deep </3
Why only 2-slots, its
identical to 3-slots.
It sucks I get it, but if you could be reported for leaving a match without your team, they could be toxic and make you wanna leave too, then they report you as a bit
It's difficult to implement a mechanic to balance this
EU is worst server in this regard
I don't disagree with that
If you feel like they should be reported do it. And see what happens but technically they didn't that could possibly ban them. Roll the dice and see what happens is all you can do.
But really, try the LFG here, it's typically miles better
I've had enough of arguing with people like you. Just imagine I also play shotguns because they're overpowered, and than imagine I don't like the fact that they're overpowered and make up 90% of the weapons players pick up.
shotguns are overpowered?
one advise use ur brain and play asper your load out
you cant kill within a certain distance at all
Ok I get it, people like shotguns. I'l just shut up.
im sorry you push into buildings with a rifle and die to a cqc weapon 😭
I dont like shotguns Im bad with them but I dont see special problem with them
Bro saying this cuz he don’t know how to play in the sever
its fine im geniunely asking why you feel that way because with shotguns anything farther range than that usaully has the advantage
theyre annoying
thats it
nobody likes fighting them
but you can just not engage cqc usually
And that is the issue, you can bring a shotgun in with little to no drawback.
They're in the annoying position cuz the prevalence of quartermaster
except range and whiffing your shots to die after
You can get a big shotty + a 2-slot rifle that competes quite well with full sized ones
quartermaster:
Or you can always slap a shotgun with your big rifle
2-slot Romero is almost equal to a 3-slot one.
reminder that the obrez is cheaper than the upper p
Not all the shorty shot guys are good tbh
Issue is the power of 2-slot is that they are good enough.
na i play in many server but worst team member are in EU, they f leave u to die just to save there own ass , Asia and Russia server are way better in this regard, they try to save you even in dire odds
Which is wild, and also has more ammo than all other long ammo rifles available
mhm
ok so the issue is that 2 slot shotguns are slightly the same as base ones even though thats the same for every other 2 slot got it
Yeah don’t speak for the whole sever that my main sever cuz that where I’m from so don’t speak on all the people who play it tbh cuz I’ll save my team and my boys so idk most people I play with will save so yeah
And if my team dies we all die
Never leave with the team and die as a team that’s how I play
Basically, bc it warps the meta around it.
When having a 1-tapper is that easy with little downside to it. Everyone gonna be picking it.
Kinda an arms race of "I know you gonna have one, so I need one too".
It have killed a lot of 2-tappers bc of that. Pistols overall.
except it has the huge downside of only one shot
There are many shotguns that are 2-slot with more than 1 shot
and i very rarely see every player have a fking pocket romero
or even a pocket specter
Auto4, bow, drilling hc, specter hc all good choices.
One-shots are the problem. There were only a few weapons in the game that had a one-shot: the bow, the throwing axe, the spear, the Mosin-avtomat, and the Nitra.
The point of the game was that every weapon in the game kills with double-shots.
Both cheap and expensive, it double-shots.
Two-shot gives a chance, a one-shot does not.
imagine the romero with double shots in its current 1 shot range for one second
and how total ass that would be
Avto was never a one-shot, and shotguns have always been a one-shot
Its similar to one-shot imho
also the whole point is your not to go into the shotguns range
Might I introduce you to the Homestead shotgun 
well well well
Ofc, but I'd rather have hunt had more nuance than long range and shotguns, which is the current state.
Ok so... should players just wait till someone gets bored?
as much as i dont want to be that guy
how would everything two taps be more nuanced?
hunt was better before 2.0
Romero should not be one-shot gun, its fucking free
no? but you should actually use your brain and not rush the shotgun player
I mean... If it wasn't a one-shot, it'd be completely useless
Issue is that with current balance. Everyone is a shotgun player.
like rotate at a safe distance maybe
who said u did , i said it happen with EU server most
That said Romero is fine
am i the only one that doesnt like that shotguns feel inconcistent? I had a shot the other day that missed when the guy was taking up 70% of my HUD sights
Like, they're great, i love a lemat for that exact back up reason
But i also feel that sometimes they're god tier and sometimes i leave a pellet outline on the wall around someone without actually hitting them
i see more rifles than shotguns easily
be a real man and run mosin spitz upper
Everyone still have a 1-tapper backup.
not to mention spear
not to be that guy again
but whats your mmr
Switch to penny, it seriously insane how many shots becomes kill shots
The big issue with shotguns and their popularity is how good quartermaster is these days
isn't that a range thing though?
Like, a sparks or a sniper aren't great up close, whereas a shotgun is great up close
A pistol has more range but then less than rifles, but still useful up close
So a rounded build would have a rifle of some kind and a shotgun of some kind
that doesnt matter in this convo im afraid
That is not strawmanning. Just player experience lol.
If it ain't a shotgun, it's a penny ringer if not that a bow lll
Can happen with anyone tbh
Take every other gun out and leave shotguns that way no one can complain
.
More so than dolchp?
Yeah, but in practice the best loadout becomes:
Long range rifle + 1 tapper.
I seen people from all severs just let u die and leave lol
well i might be trying that, i avoided the shotgun ammos after i point blanked a guy with fire rounds and he katted my tana
I rarely see dolchp in 6 star anymore.
your saying most people dont have a 2 slot shotgun
how often you see different loadouts, and therefore your perception of their popularity, is based on mmr
it does matter in this convo
exactly my point, thats due to the range nature of the game, and then moving people into that mid range is part of the skill
(i say as a newly minted 4 star)
I was also a skeptic, but my 6k shotgun main friend told me to do it and it works wonders lol
im in the middle so where most players are if you wanted to be a dbag
once in while yeah but like i said it happens in EU once every 10 games, where as in asia i never seen such behaviour and russia not very much unless u are too stupid to die repeatedly
i'm gonna be a dbag, by definition the middle is near most players
i didnt realise asking a relevant question makes me a dbag
no but your attitude does
It looks like we can't win this war 😄
Lmao, you see a lot more meta weapons in 6* than you do in 3/4
all i did was explain why it is infact relevant
uhuh
And no, I'm not a 6* either currently
me in 3* asia see a lot of meta loadouts
im really am sorry if i came across as a dbag
its fine
mainly mosin/lebel plus dolch or obrez plus bow / crown shorty
i think my point is that, isn't that how the map is designed?
You have close confines of the compounds, then the openness of the surrounding areas
I can't think of anywhere i'd rather a vetelli or a ranger over a sparks with fiddle fingers
you are one of a small handful of people i think are pretty chill here 😭
god i really need to clean this mousepad
I even face off against more avtos and nitros in 4* lobbies these days than before
Money so prevalent
i think this game needs a forced money wipe and economy rework
sorry for calling you that btw it was unnecessary
As a P0 dude, I am losing my shit
i ran into my first avtos recently
Was more surprised and impressed than frustrated because they'd been firing one shots until i rushed
like i said
The only thing that irritate me are one-shots, the rest is tolerable.
No offence think we fighting two different battles lol
i am not sure how i would feel about that but it will for sure make the money badge a challenge to get
theirs one shots in most shooters tho right?
most things have gone up in price, money isnt easier to get unless theirs an event, the people who prestige are usually dirt poor even if they win a lot
Yeah, and for the most part they are shotguns
seems so
all the events last year and not presitging made me hit 150k money
where do bows sit in that?
I got really good with one before i knew it was always a one shot, i was picking people apart in compounds and didn't know that i was killing them and they were getting rezzed, so i stopped using them, and now my play style is so different i can't use bows at all
true
siege shotguns for sure lol
ive never gone pass 12k in my prestige loops
i'm only 5 prestige, i stopped way before they changed the rewards for it
exactly
im at 10
It's dangerous, but quite random.
my last one was at 30k, but i didn't prestige in case the challenges had something i wouldn't have, as soon as circus went i prestiged again
Bows are in a comfy zone right now.
im stopping at 10 for a moment to get the 5 ace of hand achivement
bow needs nerfed sligjtly
Do wish they made concertina arrow scarce though.
Ofc an archer would say such a thing... 
it has no business having a longer leg 1 shot range than a crossbow
bow vs crossbow is a gross comparison rn
i'd prestige non-stop if i kept getting dice rolls, but getting money just makes me shrug
Don't miss the part where I said concertina should be scarce.
Arrows?
Or bombs
you can choose between 2k hunt dollars or 10% exp boost
Arrows
Arrows... Sure, only cuz they're annoying af
they really should make the coin reward like 50 bb or something
4* fortress campers man...
For arrows all we need is poison fire and normal.
or just 30 if 50 is too much
yeah after prestige 20 the rewards are so much worse
Concertina users give bows mains a bad name they are the bottom of the barrel users.
It's not, I find higher mmr lobbies to be more aggressive in general and active with less weird tactics like that
ye
always been the case
in 6*, people push you hard
this!
Like, there's a whole 10 levels of dollars that i dont care about because i'm a degenerate gambler for skins
i just feel like coins doesnt give enough sense of progress to justifies the prestige
id so much rather be in all 6* lobbies than deal with low 5 and 4* behavior
I love gambling in prestigeee
you can also get 10% bloodline exp boost, which isnt bad, makes the prestige very very fast after a few of them
im still so mad at myself
i missclick and took coins instead of gambling at prestige 8
same for the dark pact stuff
i'll keep running that all day, got like, 2 skins (redneck and someone else) and thats enough to keep me hooked on it
You can get redneck from dark pact?
yeah but it's like, cool its faster, but faster to where?
Yup.
I thought it was only the zombie guy unzombified
to prestige 100 so you dont have to worry anymore about horrible economy 😭
Nope
apparently, and i got big coat from the gambling roll, one then the next
lost both of them in the next two games
any bb skin
there's like 3 you can get, at least before it was
after that, you can get bb skins iirc
Ohhh shit huh
fuck what is the other guy called
the other one with 2 variants no?
yeah
but the % is so low, like 1% no?
.1 no?
union suit, thats right
Honestly having a chance of getting a hunter in dailies is pretty great
Didn't know that
its awesome
it is, for my gamba addiction
Untion suit + bad hand can be gotten through dark pact but also in twitch drops
i got redshirt and some other random hunter
Love that I had a Monroe chase me across the map with subsonic silencer and basically just didn't die regardless of how many shots he took
as well as a few gun skins
I love gambing
you can also get a lot of bb, hunter slots, loadout slots... its toptier
i got 100 bb one time
so far i got one hunter and one tool skin
Yeah I got a few weapon skins like sheriff Hardin's pax trueshot
thats Monroe for you
got a few skins too
mostly on guns i dont use like
Which btw sheriff Hardins gun has his face on his gun
i love the trueshot so i insta bought the skin when i saw it
played 1 match and realised i hated the skin
Awww...
intricate demise <3
i got this throwing knife skin
Dafuq do you mean you get blasted with a vetterli to the torso, twice, and my teammate shot you with a sparks, and you're still standing... Monroe used endure, it was super effective
literally 2 days after i brought the cowl dlc
Monroe used "crazy beats bullets!"
but for real though, that sounds a bit dodgy
Maybe they're lucky or quick with heals?
the design team is so good in this game
i've used ghoul mid fight to reup like
for hunter skins and gun skins too
the goat horns makes it way too bulky when in ADS tbh
it's a nice skin visually, but I cannot aim with that skin at all
can be the tarot card that fully heals, it takes like 1 second
one of the reason i quite like Ghost Face, i like that he seems to be done through a Hunt filter
Garden card goes crazy
oh yea thats why i dont really like it
yeah, thats true, i just use it to try to get wallbangs
it feels like im adsing with the new army and i do not like new army's sight
How dare ppl not play clash at 7 in the morning smh
love that skin, such a good one
currently the hunter skin that i REALLY love is 2
I don't care much for him
the weapons he comes with on the other hand
I need a garden of the witch / judgement of the fool skin reruns so I can get the black sparks and uppercut
I need to get brood at some point
these 2
i'm in the UK, i can't ever get a clash game, think it might be my internet but i've spent 40 minutes waiting for a lobby when it was the challenge during circus
love the left one too
the left cause he is so handsome he got me simping and the right cause cultural bias
All brown suit cute girly with a hood and a plague doctor mask
It's Lonely Howl and Trophy Hunter for me (though i dont use TH much, seems to be bad juju recently)
though i've been eying Hyena up for a little while
Peak hiding in bush skin
corvid brood supremacy
Is the game of skill the battle pass?
Nay
no, it's a story challenge
Battle pass starts the 18th
The stories are their own thing
I take it I started playing again during a bit of a dead patch then
Ehhh it's calm yeah
It's been a while since Hunt's been this populated between events tho
That's a good thing, though!
It is!
its not really a dead patch cause the player is quite populated
yeah, but could've been worse
its just no event is happening
I've noticed so many new ppl including me
the last one was a month ago
event in 8 days tho im quite exited
me too, i think the new mechanics are gonna be interesting
The new one?
there's gonna be 5 new skins supposedly
Yahhh!
I don't think they dropped their names have they?
New one is red raven yes
they did!
nope, they did
Ah did not know thank you.
its 5 names
cook, red raven, one who flies, highwayman, bandit
Red raven is a big cutie
i hope highwayman looks badass
I think Highwayman might be real cool, I honestly like all the skins in this one
Highwayman bandit
.
Which is rare
speaking of story challenge
That cavalry saber one is killing me
I'm more interested in what skins they'll be rerunning, given that I've missed about a year's worth of BPs
what should i pair the saber with?
Lemat carbine + bounty clash
go into clash and just go ham
Another saber 
I got my saber challenge 4 out of 5 in one clash match
I'm aware of crytek not really rerunning old BP skins, at least pre-1896
but they did do it for post malone
so there's some hope
Are you on PC?
I can help you with it in 20 minutes.
really?
maybe because it was an exclusive partner skin i'd guess
can't get into clash
I'm assuming it's an internet problem but you're talking 40 minutes without a game
xbox
Sounds like nobody's playing tbh
we'll see I suppose
I don't see a downside to rerunning old BP skins as bundles anyway, at least ones post 1896
other than maybe a subset of people yelling 'muh exclusivity'
yeah i think the same
Oh nvm than.
yeah, but a lot of people would get mad
oof
and crytek wouldnt make as much money i'd guess, because people would lose their FOMO from the battlepass and not buy it
since they could get the skin they want later on
preferably something that can handle itself at medium to short range
thats what i thought, but then i was talking to a UK xbox player who said the longest he waits is 5 minutes and he mostly plays clash, so figured it was a me issue
short to use in that awkward range where using a mele is not good
for a much higher price than the BP
and the fact that they'll also be losing out on the bbs / hunters, since those are mythic and remain exclusive
lemat carbine yes vet should work too even cent
i'll try and give that a go tonight
well idk, its a hard topic ahahaha because a lot of people would get mad, but nothing a survey couldnt solve 😛
Once I've bought a story mission, is it still timed, or do I keep it to complete it forever
Ooo yah he's good
i wish the stories were slightly cheaper or they gave BB rewards, wont lie
What's the difference between a scarce and a burn trait?

scarce you can only find in world and burn is
its gone after its used
scarce means they're rare, burn disappears after using it once
Anyone here aim train?
ok thanks
like necro and death cheat
necro let you revive someone from a far or revive yourself as a solo and it only works once
death cheat let you keep your hunter if you die but only once
Death cheat is so great when your lvling xp
I had to get Morgan to 50 which was quite annoying
He'll be my second fully maxed hunter
im too much of a coward to risk losing a lvl 50 hunter that 10bloodline level is too big to lose
how do hunters work the whole thing is kind of confusing\
Theirs free hunters who have limited weapons and perks and then theirs paid hunters that get ten perk points and you buy their weapons paid hunters are replayable and you can keep buying them
someone do the honnor im hilariusly bad at explaining something
All the hunters that are legendary and dlc etc are the replayable hunters you can buy with a hundred hunt bucks
Me when Caitlyn Hammond and Vinson Hayes are some of my favorite hunters (I think they are free, as in not a purchasable cosmetic)
Hunter is a regular character you get your loadout on + 10 trait points to spend. A free Hunter is a premade cheap Kit
No you gotta pay the hunt bucks
Legendary hunters are just skins
and you can only play free hunters once?
I meant that they are free in the sense that you unlock them as cosmetics by playing
Nope
As long as you want
no, they recycle after every match
you'll get 4 each cycle
Instead of having to spend bb
each comes with a basic kit with weapons and healing
You can get BB hunters for free tho it's rng
Yeah the 3 Hunters from the cover + some more are free
oh ok I think I understand now thanks yall
Oh and the prestige hunters you can get too
the second one took me forever
The amount of times i died in my 40's
i have not even done morgans
Today has to have been the worst day of hunt I've had so far. I guess that's what I get for trying to force weapons I am not comfortable with for the weeklies
there are still several T3s that need to make a comeback though
we got a good chunk of them rn but some of the most iconic ones are still unavailable
I think they said their bringing some back
Yeh
ohly one ive currently done is this gal
Sammee
I need my boy back
i did the crazy man in a hood, that was fun, just covering my team from outside the compound and sniping teams as they pushed
the old crazy guy in a hood
i notice how neither of those narrow it down much
i did it solely cause i find her second skin cool
how come theres a couple with the same t3 skin?
i like her survivor variant much cooler than her vet
i think that for a couple of them tbh
it's also pretty interesting that the survivor version of both the bushwookie hunters used to also be T3s
and afaik they are the only 2 hunters to have that
Yeah lol weird
guys ever think this game will have a passive mode
like a mod where i don’t have to fight other players
probably not
triple the health and damage on all the monsters, double the amount, and it'd be horrific, i'd love it
it’s something i’ve hoped for cause i use the vulture playstyle and am normally in matches just cleaning up bodies and extracting
That sounds very funny do you also only being a derringer?
Bring*
That way you just grab the best guns off the corpses
And if you ever get into a fight you just kill them and take their guns so they got nothing if the revive
speaking of swapping weapons
If you're out of ammo and swap with someone who gets rezzed, are they out too?
yes
they get the weapon u have
but do they get the ammo?
Like, if we have the same gun (sparks with subsonic for example) and i swap, do i get their subsonic ammo and they get my lack of it?
Yes
...i need to take advantage of that more often
amogus
I believe you refill your ammo supply from theirs, if they had more bullets than you can carry they are left with some, but you can also unload their gun before swapping back (though risky as they might get up with your gun if it’s a solo)
trying to think of a situation where it's better than just burning them
Pick up the ammo and then burn them
Go in with just an uppercut and when you kill one, just take their whole gun 😀
is it the romero thats the one shot shotgun?
it is
if you want to count technicalities then there's also the drilling and the lemat family too
Do you mean single shot, or one shot kill
Broadly isn’t, but it’s an option, some solos will sit burning hoping you get bored or distracted, so having emptied their gun can help if you find yourself camping a body
Then yes, apart from the underbarrel shotguns like the Lamat, haymaker, and drilling
Event.
18th
Sooner.
The monkey's paw curls
aw man, i'm going to have to buy BB's now
what makes u think that?
It was a joke about the monkey's paw because the guy i replied to said "earlier"

jesus christ
this was pathetic
holy bait
